Comey Associate Aims to Prevent DOJ Access to Seized Materials

A former lawyer for ex-FBI Director James Comey, Daniel Richman, is suing the Justice Department over the seizure of materials from him during a 2019-2020 investigation related to Comey. Richman’s legal team argues that the files, which include data from his hard drive and email accounts, were improperly seized, violating his Fourth Amendment rights. A judge found that the government unlawfully retained this information and conducted a new search without a warrant. Richman seeks a court order to block the government from using these materials and to return them.
